I laugh, shaking my head a little.“Oh, so there to provide the entertainment then?”
Tommy cracks a half grin as he says, “Fuck off.”I follow his gaze, which is firmly locked on Penny who is now wandering over toward Jamie and Hannah.I smile at the interruption, silently thanking Penny for going over there as I watch her greet Hannah with a hug and a smile.
“So, how’s your new chef working out?”Tommy asks.
“Good,” I reply, taking a sip of my beer.“Really good, actually.”
Tom glances sideways, a brow raised in question as he hits me with a smirk.
“What?”I say laughing.
He laughs too, shaking his head a little.“Did I say anything?”
“No, well not with words anyway,” I reply, knowing he’s clearly thinking something.I really like Tommy, he’s a cool guy, even if he is a man of few words.
He shrugs, turning back to Penny and Hannah.“She seems nice, and I know Pen really likes her.It’s good she’s working out.”
I nod, even though he isn’t looking at me, as my eyes move back to Hannah as she laughs and talks to Pen.God, she’s fucking hot.Tom raises his glass at me, a sly smile on his face as he heads over to join his wife.I want to go over and join them too, but I’m afraid that if I do, I won’t be able to keep my hands off Hannah.
“Fuck me,” I mutter, refilling my glass before I turn and head back to my office, knowing I cannot risk outing us in front of everyone.
I’m lost in paperwork when I hear a knock on my door.Glancing up, I see Hannah standing in the doorway, a small smile on her face.
“Hey, so I’m heading out, just stopping by to say goodnight.”
I glance behind her, noting the dark and very empty kitchen.Without saying a word, I stand from my chair, walk around my desk and toward her.Pulling her inside my office, I close the door behind her and back her up against it.She looks up at me, her lips parted, her breath coming out in soft puffs.
I brush a thumb across her cheek as I lower my mouth to hers in a soft kiss.Hannah smiles against my mouth as she whispers, “We seem to be making a habit of this.”
Chuckling, I curl my hand around her neck.“I’m blaming you for that.”
“Me?”she asks, mock surprise in her voice as she pulls back, her head resting against the door.“How is this my fault exactly?”
Smiling, I lean closer, my hips now resting against her hips, as I brush my nose against hers.“Because you’re so fucking sexy,” I whisper against her mouth.“And I can’t seem to get enough of you.”
She smirks, her hands slipping under my t-shirt, her fingers gliding over my skin and setting me on fire.“I think the feeling is mutual.”
“Is that so?”I ask as I trace her bottom lip with my tongue.
“Uh huh.”
“Fuck,” I breathe out, my hand slipping to her ass and pulling her against me as I kiss her hard and deep.Hannah groans, as a low growl sounds in my chest, possessive and demanding.God, I want this woman so badly.
“I should go,” she eventually breathes out.I can feel her heart pounding in her chest, mirroring my own.
“You’re not driving back to San Fran, right?”I ask, wishing she was coming home with me, wondering if she’d say yes if I asked her.
“No,” she says, shaking her head.“I’ve officially moved in with my brother.”She rolls her eyes in acan you believe itkind of way.
Chuckling, I sneak another quick kiss as I ask, “And I’m guessing he’d notice if you didn’t come home tonight?”
Hannah hits me with a sexy as hell smirk, as though she knows exactly what I’m really asking with that question.“He would,” she says.“He’s already in full-on dad training mode, so yeah, he’d notice.”
“And there would be questions?”
“There would be questions,” she repeats.“Lots of very nosy, painfully annoying questions.”
Laughing, I lean in, kissing the corner of her mouth as I move mine to her ear.“Then I guess we better find you somewhere else to live.”
